  • For week 3:

    Current Weight -- 168.5 (ugh)
    # of days of daily exercises -- 6/6
    # of days of weekly challenge -- 4/6 (explains why I'm up a pound...)
    mini challenge -- 500/500 crunches
    0/100 high-lows

    I'm excited for this upcoming week. I have three days of zumba, 4 days of heavy activity at work (stream sampling), and I cooked all of my breakfasts and all of my dinners for the week today! I'm bound and determined to be down this week.

    Ok team, I didn't do to well this week.

    Weight 208.8 (same as last week)

    I exercised 4/6 days (very busy weekend)
    I only did 50 crunches and 0 hi lows.

    I think this is all the info you need...

    Weekly challenge 4/6 days.

    I figure I didn't gain weight this week so it shouldn't be that bad right?

    Due to basement flooding and trying to get it cleaned up before I go out of town this weekend I haven't been very good with the exercises. I did Mondays. Water is not a problem and neither is calories. I am sorry for this, but I have to get the basement done. We are both highly allergic to mold...any advise or ideas? I am shop vacing the carpets over and over again and we have fans down there...

    I'm behind but I plan on catching up tonight...I'll post my progress later!

    Moonnstarz83-just take care of you, we wouldn't want you getting sick. Seems like you are on the right track with the vacuuming and fans. I'm not sure how much a dehumidifier is but maybe they have them for rent somewhere???

    It's that day again :) Don't forget to send me your stats for the week. I'll compile everything and post our results. The month is almost over, keep up the great work!

    Weight: 201.4
    4/6 days food/water
    6/6 days exercise
    240 extra crunches

    Sorry about messing up two of the 6 days food wise. One was spent in airports flying to SC the other was spent in a hospital for 8+ hours while my mom had her surgery. I never went nuts food wise, but I was over two days and getting up at 3:30 am and 4:30 am meant very early bed times for me so no exercise.

    This upcoming week I think I'll do much better. I'm cooking all the meals for my mom and as I can't really leave her alone during her recovery, all I'll have is the internet, TV and their workout room upstairs to keep me occupied for most of the week. Keep up the amazing work everyone! One week of September left and then its done. :happy:

    Hi everyone,
    Sorry I've been MIA, but in addition to my vacation last week I've been dealing with some pretty substantial personal issues as well. If you've already replaced me I completely understand, but either way I am planning on doing the challenges for this week. I hope everyone is doing well.

    I sent in my check in. Not too great, but ok this week. No weight change which is disappointing but at least I didn't gain after my crazy stressful week.

    I'm going to bow out of the October challenge. I'm going to do my own thing the month of October and see how I do. Good luck everyone! I had fun, but need to focus on what works for me this month, not on other people's challenges. :smile:

    Thanks to those of you who got your stats in. Tomorrow I will tally everything up and post our final results. The new challenge will start tomorrow for those of you who want to stick around (I'll be doing it). There will be fewer of us, but that's ok! (Tanisha1990, of course you can stay on for the next month!). Gary hasn't posted the exercises yet but here is a sneak peek at some new ones that he will be adding: http://mfpchallenges.blogspot.com/2011/09/overboard-in-october-exercises.html

    Sara-Sad to see you go but I'll be keeping in touch on here any way!

    Moonnstarz83-Don't worry about it, we all have weeks like that...in fact this week and last week were a little rough for me too! Keep up the great work!

    I will try to stick around and try another month if you will have me! As you know I am busy, and now the wedding planning is in high gear, but I would love to try again. Maybe this time I will have more luck with everything including time management and not so many natural disasters in my basement LOL
